Default ANY HELP

When I drive my car for a like 20 min. or longer then shut if off to get gas or whatever. Then start it back up it acts like it is either flooding out or not getting enough fuel but it only does this til I get on it as soon as i start driving it clears up.

I would start with checking out the IAC.
Try cleaning it with some TB cleaner and reinstall it.
if that doesnt work look for any vaccume leaks.

Good Luck

^ What he said. You can try cleaning the iac if you want (others before you have with varying degrees of success), but technically it is not considered a serviceable part, meaning that replacement is your best option.

If it's the IAC I would just replace it. Cleaning it does not always work. Very easy fix if this your problem. Although it doesn't sound like the same problem. Does it die or try to die when you let off the throttle or is everything fine untill you try to restart the car?

It runs fine until I shut it down after it is warmed up then start it again but it only runs weird until i either rev it up for a couple seconds or take off down the road. It never does this while just driving it.
